This book comprises selected papers of the 25th International Conference on Difference Equations and Applications, ICDEA 2019, held at UCL, London, UK, in June 2019. The volume details the latest research on difference equations and discrete dynamical systems, and their application to areas such as biology, economics, and the social sciences. Some chapters have a tutorial style and cover the history and more recent developments for a particular topic, such as chaos, bifurcation theory, monotone dynamics, and global stability. Other chapters cover the latest personal research contributions of the author(s) in their particular area of expertise and range from the more technical articles on abstract systems to those that discuss the application of difference equations to real-world problems. The book is of interest to both Ph.D. students and researchers alike who wish to keep abreast of the latest developments in difference equations and discrete dynamical systems.

This book presents the proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Difference Equations and Applications, which was held at the Technical University in Dresden, Germany, in May 2018, under the auspices of the International Society of Difference Equations (ISDE). The conference brought together leading researchers working in the respective fields to discuss the latest developments, and to promote international cooperation on the theory and applications of difference equations. This book appeals to researchers and scientists working in the fields of difference equations and discrete dynamical systems and their applications.

This textbook is an elementary introduction to the world of dynamical systems and Chaos. Dynamical systems provide a mathematical means of modeling and analysing aspects of the changing world around us. The aim of this ground-breaking new text is to introduce the reader both to the wide variety of techniques used to study dynamical systems and to their many applications. In particular, investigation of dynamical systems leads to the important concepts of stability, strange attractors, Chaos, and fractals.

This volume holds a collection of articles based on the talks presented at ICDEA 2007 in Lisbon, Portugal. The volume encompasses current topics on stability and bifurcation, chaos, mathematical biology, iteration theory, nonautonomous systems, and stochastic dynamical systems.

These proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Difference Equations and Applications cover the areas of difference equations, discrete dynamical systems, fractal geometry, difference equations and biomedical models, and discrete models in the natural sciences, social sciences and engineering. The conference was held at the Wuhan Institute of Physics and Mathematics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (Hubei, China), under the auspices of the International Society of Difference Equations (ISDE) in July 2014. Its purpose was to bring together renowned researchers working actively in the respective fields, to discuss the latest developments, and to promote international cooperation on the theory and applications of difference equations. This book will appeal to researchers and scientists working in the fields of difference equations, discrete dynamical systems and their applications.

These proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Difference Equations and Applications cover a number of different aspects of difference equations and discrete dynamical systems, as well as the interplay between difference equations and dynamical systems. The conference was organized by the Department of Mathematics at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) under the auspices of the International Society of Difference Equations (ISDE) and held in Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain) in July 2012. Its purpose was to bring together experts and novices in these fields to discuss the latest developments. The book gathers contributions in the field of combinatorial and topological dynamics, complex dynamics, applications of difference equations to biology, chaotic linear dynamics, economic dynamics and control and asymptotic behavior, and periodicity of difference equations. As such it is of interest to researchers and scientists engaged in the theory and applications of difference equations and discrete dynamical systems.

The book presents the proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Difference Equations and Applications, ICDEA 2017, held at the West University of Timișoara, Romania, under the auspices of the International Society of Difference Equations (ISDE), July 24 - 28, 2017. It includes new and significant contributions in the field of difference equations, discrete dynamical systems and their applications in various sciences. Disseminating recent studies and related results and promoting advances, the book appeals to PhD students, researchers, educators and practitioners in the field.
